Naive question... if your email client would have to do that anyway, in exchange for a bunch of your disk space and CPU, does moving that responsibility to the OS make a net difference?

Is it that BeFS was indexing everything and not just the folders that needed to be indexed?

macos spotlight is also routinely indexing the file system, doesn't seem so different to me, naively
